The large meeting halls have good access and ample seating. The venue was great and so was the service there. Our event should have provided better maps so we could get there without wandering all over hell's half acre. This is a nice building for a conference. There are many nice sized rooms and lots of poster rooms downstairs. I was also pleased with the staff.
Close to the ocean and convenient to shoppng and restaurants. But with that comes all the expected and $$$ parking hassles. I got lucky and found a lot with an all-day flat rate of $5.00. I only walked 2(?) blocks, got to see some of the city and didn't have to que up to get in to and out of the facilties' overpriced structure.
The large meeting halls had good access and ample seating, and the Terrace Theatre was large and well designed.
huge convention place, for 10 years I've been coming to this place, enjoying the ISSE beauty show, and the only thing I dislike... is the food hall... not enough healthy options...
This is a annual event for me and my wife. The convention center is the perfect location for this event. Parking is easy, right across the street. The Long Beach marina is also right across the street. Can't wait for next year.John & LynNita Ellis
This conference center looks really nice from the outside. Upon entering, you'll find a little cart cafe with seating on the first floor. The bathroom nearby the coffee and food? Six stalls in the women's. Really? So, you have thousands of people coming for a conference, you offer them food and endless coffee and the closest bathroom has only six stalls? That is some poor planning. There are other bathrooms, all with six stalls, so there are other options. I was just shocked at the one by the food was so small.I'm not sure if this was just apparent at the conference I attended or whether this is a function of the convention center itself but I felt like the badge checking people were particularly aggressive. They were rude, unfriendly and quite demanding even when your badge was pretty apparent. The box lunch provided at this facility was quite a bit worse than I have had other places. There were no gluten-free options and one vegetarian. There was also only water to drink, no soda or anything. There was supposed to be breakfast at the conference I attended but I think they cleaned it up within 20 minutes because I never saw any. And when they say 15 minute coffee break, seriously, the free coffee will only be out for 15 minutes maximum and then was cleaned up by employees.The rooms were a nice size and comfortable and it was easy to get around so those things were a plus.
Great place to hold events. Very comfortable. Close to tourist attractions and public transportation. Great restaurants.
Roomy, clean, convenient location, efficient audio and visual. Great meeting spot. Had restaurants inside. Nearby beach and other restaurants.
What a great show and a great complex. This was a professionally ran show with all the industry leaders. The Convention center made the show quite comfortable
The convention center is huge and comfortable. In all the sessions I attended, there were no problems with noise from other sessions 'bleeding' through the walls. Concessions were pricey but offered a good variety of food. If you're a diet coke fanatic, bring your own.
